Playa Jaco is the closest beach to San Jose, the Central Valley and is one of the most visited coastal destinations in Costa Rica. The beach is a 2.5 mile (4 km) strip which offers world renowned surfing and more.
So here we go with a story of a Disney park that went from failure to success. Before we get started, I want to share a small fact that can cause confusion. The park's name was changed from Disney's (possessive) California Adventure to Disney (non-possessive) California Adventure as part of the park's transformation. For simplicity sake, I'm going to use the new, non-possessive name for continuity throughout this article whether or not the time frame calls for it.
The 72-acre (29 ha) park is themed after the history and culture of California. The park opened in 2001 as Disney's California Adventure Park, and it is the second of two theme parks built at the Disneyland Resort complex, after Disneyland Park. The concept of a theme park dedicated to California arose from a meeting of Disney executives in 1995, following the cancellation of the WestCOT project.
